Lazy? Puhlease...
I don't know about ya'll but I care very little what the talking heads on the news have to say concerning Fred. Every time I get to hear him speak I am even more convinced that he is my candidate.
I guess unlike some voters I don't necessarily need flashy lines and funny one liners. I consider the selection of the President a very solemn responsibility and should be based on these kind of superficial things.
Fred is still the best conservative candidate in the field..... if not the only one

Great dodge, look at him run into the elevator once he realized that Jason Mattera, of the Young America’s Foundation wasn't a lobbyist wanting to hand him an envelope.

I Remember
James Marshall was a Naval Intelligence officer that I met in 1988. I was at a conference at Seymour Johnson AFB where he gave seminar and disclosed a somber prediction. That the United States would see a large scale terrorist event inside its borders within 10 to 20 years and such an attack would most likely be directed at a high profile target like the World Trade Center. And he was right...... twice. That was 1987, six years before Ramzi Yousef conspired to blow up the WTC and Fourteen years before Al Qaeda succeeded. But, James Marshall nailed it and our government missed it... twice.
The fact that the United States government missed it is not that surprising. Our govenment is a mess. The bureaucratic quagmire in DC is never going to change until we start at one end of Pennsylvania Avenue weeding out every functionary who's sole existence is to leak sensitive information to the NYT on our dime. That most likely will not happen in our lifetime.
In truth if truly do want these madmen to attack this country again it will require our very society to change. The apathy which has ruled this nation has to stop. The lack of interest we have toward the daily operation of government has be replaced with accountability. The tolerance of partisan antics and grandstanding needs to stop. Our system is broken and we have to see that it is fixed. We need to carefully elect our officials and throw out the people that aren't working for the good of this nation.
The most important thing that each of must embrace is to never forget who this enemy is. It does not matter why they are. They have proven time and time again that they can not be reasoned with. The only thing that will appease them is the destruction of this nation.
Unfortunately our greatest asset is also our greatest weakness. Our freedoms have to be used responsibly, if we do not we play right into their hands. They understand us better that we understand ourselves. They are committed, they are determined, and they do not forget.... neither should we.

What the Craig?

I could really care less if Craig stays or goes. I would lean to him going, since he has already signaled that he would. I am sure that the sentiment is shared with Republican Leaders and most of the party in general. It's a mute point, because I am sure the good people of Idaho will dispense with Mr. Craig in 2008.
The sad fact is the long legs that this story has gotten and the relative muted coverage the Hsu campaign allegations have gotten. Who by the way turned himself in and was released on bond, so that you guessed it, he could skip town again. How stupid is our legal system. This clown is probably sitting in Hong Kong safe from the prying eyes of the MSM. The judge that released him on bond should be slapped. This guy was on the lamb since 1991, why on earth would you provide him a chance to run again, this time to a location where he isn't easily retrievable. Way to go, Your Honor.

Presidential Visit
Its sad that this type of hatred is espoused and tolerated by these sites. Some of the statements I've read are borderline threats and tecnically illegal. But Hey its just Bush, who cares? This is the prevalent attitude among the left wing nuts. To these people respect for the office means nothing, its all about hating the man that currently fills it. Aren't the right wingers supposed to be the haters?
I have never seen statements made by right wing bloggers that even compare to the filth of the left. Of course they hide their nonsense under the mantle of "comedy". Their favorite lines; "its just a joke", or "we are really being serious". I am sorry there comes a point when jokes are more than humor. Especially when there is nothing funny with what they are saying.

Self Inflicted Economic Pressure

The sub prime market is the root of this nonsense, a market that is small compared to millions of mortgage customers in America, but large because of the money financial institutions have in it. Because greed won out during the housing boom of the last few years, we now face problems because banks loaned money to individuals they should not have. Additionally, marketeers and individuals seeking to make a quick buck by flipping real estate now find themselves unable to cover their margins. It all amounts to a mess, but not the end of the world.
Even though democrat pundits would have us believe the bottom is dropping out, the Dow remains solid, volatile, but solid. We aren't seeing a spill over into other sectors of the market and the banks are still loaning money. Albeit they have tightened up their lending standards, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The market is doing as the market does, It is correcting itself.
Even so the MSM is giddy with story after story of how the "crunch" is going to ruin us all. For the nearly 40 years I've been making money I have heard the same thing numerous times, yet never once have I been directly impacted or has it cost me my life savings. It all comes down to being smart with your finances, which unfortunately a wide margin of we Americans aren't.
Its almost hypocritical to damn Congress for spending like a drunken sailor when the majority of Americans are doing the same thing. We as a nation constantly rack up billions of dollars in unneeded personal debt each year. Many times using credit to buy things we can't really afford. And when the first payment comes due, whine because we can't afford to live.
I have no sympathy for anyone who lives in a $2000.00 trailer so that they can barely afford the payments on a $45000.00 vehicle. Or someone who buys a new HDTV when they should be putting that money aside for the future, then scream when the future gets here and they have no money.
The bottom line is Americans need to get smarter financially from top to bottom. We need to apply conservative financial principles and stop spending ourselves into oblivion. If we did we wouldn't have to worry about half of things we do right now. There are always going to be those that through misfortune, not necessarily of their own, who will need help. But the vast majority of problems we face are created by own lack of vision and unwillingness to make the hard choices.
If we were more intelligent with our money then perhaps we wouldn't think we need socialized medicine, or welfare. If we applied conservatism properly these needs could be met without trillion dollar entitlement programs. Work = Money, Money * Financial Prudence = Peace of Mind.
Just like the overall market if we tell ourselves the situation is bad, then bad is all we will see. It applies to our own finances also. No matter how difficult we find the situation we still have choices. We can either make a bad one or a good. We are fortunate enough to live in country that not only allows it, but is founded upon it.

Gonzales Gone

Gonzales will have to be replaced but the question is who is going to replace him. Or better yet, who would want to replace him given that this administration has only 16 month left in power. At best it will be a temporary assignment for whoever is lucky (unlucky) enough to make it through the Senate confirmation gauntlet.
Gonzales by all accounts was an effective AG. His only true fault was being too nice. A trait that is of little use in the circle of Capital politics. He should have simplt testified the facts. US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the President. Period.
This entire fiasco is worse than the Scotter Libby witch hunt. It reveals the depths to which politicans will sink in order gain politcal advantage. There was no crime, no conspiracy. The resources and manpower wasted on these useless investigations highlight why DC needs a thorough house cleaning.

Convenient Hypocrisy

This story circulating the Internet is considered to factual and true according to snopes.comLOOK OVER THE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FOLLOWING TWO HOUSES AND SEE IF YOU CAN TELL WHICH BELONGS TO AN ENVIRONMENTALIST.
HOUSE # 1: A 20-room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas. Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house all heated by gas. In ONE MONTH ALONE this mansion consumes more energy than the average American household in an ENTIRE YEAR. The average bill for electricity and natural gas runs over $2,400.00 per month. In natural gas alone (which last time we checked was a fossil fuel), this property consumes more than 20 times the national average for an American home. This house is not in a northern or Midwestern "snow belt," either. It's in the South.
HOUSE # 2: Designed by an architecture professor at a leading national university, this house incorporates every "green" feature current home construction can provide. The house contains only 4,000 square feet (4 bedrooms) and is nestled on arid high prairie in the American southwest. A central closet in the house holds geothermal heat pumps drawing ground water through pipes sunk 300 feet into the ground. The water (usually 67 degrees F.) heats the house in winter and cools it in summer. The system uses no fossil fuels such as oil or natural gas, and it consumes 25% of the electricity required for a conventional heating/cooling system. Rainwater from the roof is collected and funneled into a 25,000 gallon underground cistern. Wastewater from showers, sinks and toilets goes into underground purifying tanks and then into the cistern. The collected water then irrigates the land surrounding the house. Flowers and shrubs native to the are! a blend the property into the surrounding rural landscape.
HOUSE # 1 (20 room energy guzzling mansion) is outside of Nashville,Tennessee. It is the abode of that renowned environmentalist (and filmmaker) Al Gore.
HOUSE # 2 (model eco-friendly house) is on a ranch near Crawford, Texas. Also known as "the Texas White House," it is the private residence of the President of the United States, George W. Bush.

Bigot, Homophobic, Racist
Everyone is entitled to believe what they wish, even if its stupid and wrong in my opinion. There was a day when people with opposing views respected dissenting views and could carry on a civil discussion without attacking each other. Today that seems not to be the case.
Recently, I was attempting explain my view regarding gay marriage to a person I know. Personally, I disagree that homosexuality is a condition a person is born with. That is what "I" believe. I see evidence in the Word of God that this is true. As I said it is what I believe. And for having that solemn belief was labeled homophobic, not only that but ignorant and was accused of violating a homosexual's civil rights by believing what I believe.
The Left's tactic is to marginalize our conservative beliefs, especially if they are Christian. To paint our convictions as being archaic and not in step with modern views. But they miss the point entirely. Most conservatives are quite comfortable with their beliefs, they don't need polls, or a majority to support their views. They are not looking to convert anyone and could care less if anyone else agrees with their position. It is simply that which they believe, nothing more or less.
Liberals on the other hand seem compelled to change our minds. They view Christian values as quaint and archaic. They agree with no interpretation of beliefs that involve accountability, and seemed embroiled in a perpetual "gray" area. To them nothing is absolute. Even though the world is filled with them. Relativism is their religion and any system of belief that doesn't allow acceptance of all things is an anachronism. There is no evil and good is defined as what is good for you, regardless of morality. Morals after all are personal standards gleaned after years of self-discovery, not learned behavior passed on from parents to children. Tradition is out, and progressiveness is in.
With all their lofty rhetoric, why are calling us haters, bigots, and racists? If our opinions are so narrow and behind the times why are they even bothering with confronting them? Seems to me if they were so correct the need for confrontation is mute.

Fight the Law, The Law Wins

This debate over immigration is a winner for which ever candidate seizes it. Guiliana has made some strong anti-illegal immigration statements, and so has 2nd tier candidates Tancredo and Hunter. On the Democrat side, they have been unsurprisingly mute.
Americans all across the United States are sick of feeling that they are losing their country. That is it in a nutshell. DO we want to stop immigration totally, of course not. We want to stop the illegal invasion of our country.
We are tired of going into Wal-marts in certain cities in this nation and not being able to understand the cashiers when they speak. We are tired of illegal immigrant thugs harming and killing our people. We are tired of prisons being filled to overflowing with these men and women. And we are tired of the Federal government sitting on their hands and pandering to special interest pro-amnesty immigration groups.
I have worked with immigrants from Central America, some I suspect were illegal. For the most part they are good hard working people. I have no quarter them. I do have problems with them being here illegally when their are thousands of people trying to come here legally, going through the government system of jump rope for years, making the investment of time and effort to be a legal citizen. Why should I let illegals have a free pass?
The proponents of amnesty say its impossible to deport them all, It is the kind thing to do, It will cost to much to deport them, and my personal favorite - what have they really done that is "illegal"? They broke our LAW, that is what! Pretty much defined illegal in my opinion.
Again this illness of relativism has infected a good portion of the citizens of this nation. You get by the word illegal by calling them "undocumented", you get bay the law by saying, "we lured them here with jobs". I am willing to concede the latter is true, but only because the 1986 Simpson Bill did not enforce the law which said companies could be held accountable for hiring illegal workers. That is changing.

We have seen several foiled plots in the last few months, luckily for the prospective victims of these alleged attacks the attackers were not well trained, telegraphed their actions and were arrested. Luck is a fickle friend. I wouldn't base the safety of anyone in this nation solely upon it, but the apathy of this nation forces reliance upon it.

President: "Progress in Iraq"

I expected the Democrat Response to his message to be some scathing denial of the progress and how we have "lost" this conflict and nothing can be done to change that. Instead the Defeat-o-crats roll out Ellen Tauscher, D-California, will a rambling statement about how the war has depleted our military and only "her bipartian" legislation can save the military from the insane policies of this administration.
It amazes me how these fruits speak about military matters as experts and authorities having never once served a single day in a combat zone, but they have all the answers. Rubbish, the only thing this Democrat Congress has is an ever growing problem with their surrender policy in a conflict that obvious isn't lost after all.
As a retired military man who has served in a war zone and dozens of other less than desirable places I can say this. When in uniform I understood as my compatriots did, there were going to be times we had to put aside ourselves for the good of the mission. Liberals will never ever understand the mind of the common G.I. because they can't get themselves out of the way long enough to see that there are indeed times when the good of the many outweigh the good of the few.
A soldiers indoctrination in the military is about driving this point home. Transforming selfish motives into selfless actions. Its a part of that "brainwashing" we in the military are forced to endure, yea right. As aforementioned, it is idiotic notions like this that prevent these liberal geniuses from seeing the truth.
If you ask a G.I. in Iraq if he wants to go home what do you expect him or her to say? No, I really like it here, I hope I can come back to visit. I do not think so. If you go to South Korea and ask a G.I. serving there the same question you would get the same answer as from the one in Iraq, Hell Yes, get me out of this God forsaken hell hole!
Families of soldiers, sailors and airmen are hit hard by these deployments, I am not denying that. But unlike the liberals in Hollywood and San Francisco these patriotic people understand the necessity for sacrifice. They understand and believe in duty, honor, country. DO they like having their loved one in harm's way, of course not. But, they know its part of serving.
When you serve you know these types of missions can come along. And if you don't or just want game the system for educational benefits or enlistment bonuses then you don't belong in the uniform. The U.S. military is an entity founded and sustained by honor. When you join the military expects you uphold the oath you take when you are sworn in. They expect you to have made the decision to serve for the correct reasons. That oath says you will serve where and when needed by the President. And that often means where bad guys are shooting at you. It goes like this:
"I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice."
And the part that liberals really love; "So help me God."

Parade of Victims
There is not very many people I bump into that that haven't had their fair share of tragedy either personally, or in their families. I and my family have had some ourselves. Of the aforementioned and especially myself three things hold true. One, we got through, two, we did so with out the help of any government agency, and third we are stronger and better people for it.
I am a Christian and my trust is in the faith I hold in Jesus. It saddens me when I see people, many who claim to be Christian, look to our government when they need to be looking much higher than that. God is the answer to our problems not Hillary Clinton, although there are times she thinks she is God.
I wasn't always a man of faith, I used to be an Atheist, then an Agnostic, then a Buddhist. Finally, after my life was a total wreck and I was totally broken, I met the Lord. It took me until my thirties to learn that the answers I sought were with me all along. God never left me, though I tried and tried to run from Him. And it happened, a life changing event and I can never go back to the way I was anymore than I can return to my own youth. It is a personal epiphany that defies explanation and only understood by those who have experienced it. I didn't learn the truth, I met the Truth and realized that He is the one I am to rely upon, not myself, not others, and certainly not the government.
This is the crux of the battle between most conservatives and the liberals. They deny the truth and seek to replace it with a facsimile, the all inclusive government. We conservatives of faith, know that government can't replace God, but should facilitate his work here on earth and impede it. We know that governments can't protect us from misfortune, we also know that God allows us to weather these storms not because he hates his children, but because he wants to see us grow
Unfortunately, there are people in this world that allow problems to overcome them, rather than overcoming the problems. And worse there are ruthless people who will exploit those less fortunate for their own political and personal gains by creating a permanent "victim" class in this nation. After all there is no need for big government if there are not plenty of people that depend upon it for help.

Brainless, Godless, and Plain Wrong
I have always contended that its not a matter of close mindedness that causes my opposition to the liberal views, its the fact that I have made up my mind. A stance alien to the relativistic minds of the left. To them all options must remain open, even ones that have never worked or will ever work. And its that component of the liberal mind that frightens me the most. Their naivety.
Barrack Obama and his insightful comments toward Pakistan for example. I'm sure that he factored in the anti-America factions he has incited against Pervez Musharraf who's government is already in a tenuous position. Is this the type of foreign policy genius that we need running the country? Hollywood liberals seem to to think it is, given their support for Obama.
And speaking of Hollywood liberals, Sean Penn. Penn is visiting Hugo Chavez on a journalistic mission. What exactly does a high school dropout know about journalism? He's a fairly decent actor and should stick to that. These adolescent displays of misuse of his celebrity only confirm his overt hatred of President Bush. A hatred that has become a mental disease in his case. Visiting with a vocal anti-American dictator like Chavez only marginalizes his opinions.
And opinions on Daily Kos are rampant. Anti-Semitic, Anti-military, and Anti-America are common themes. Yet every major Democratic candidate felt compelled to attend this yearly convention. Some of the statements made by them would never be uttered outside this progressive forum, especially Hillary Clinton's. I can't see how you can make statements to one group of your supporters that wouldn't dare speak to others. But that is the liberal mind, everything said is relative. In my opinion that is just plain wrong.

It is very sad that these misguided clowns feel that because they are protected by the anonymity of there web identities they can post such vile comments. Its worse that they are given the forum to do so. Sadly, there are plenty of places tucked away in plain sight on the net that allow these morons the venue.
The irritating thing is half of these maggots would never in a million years say the things that they write on these websites in person. They are very brave sitting alone in the dark clicking away at their keyboard in their mothers basement. But if you were to put them in a forum where they have to defend their sick views in "persona" they would probably just sit there with a stupid look on their faces and spit running down their chins.
It is sad that there are people like this. They have always been here. Its an unfortunate by product of the Internet that they now have a venue to spew their idiotic comments.
